House Calls
I get the question all the time….do you do house calls?
The answer is, of course. I’m an elder lawyer and I go to wherever my clients need me. People need help and sometimes they can’t travel or it is too taxing. Sometimes, it is an emergency due to an illness or pending significant procedure. So, my work often takes me to people’s homes, hospitals, and nursing homes. I also often visit assisted living and independent living facilities.
If you are not able to travel and you need an Elder Lawyer to advise you, represent you to your facility, execute a Will, execute a Health Care Proxy, change a Trust or execute a Power of Attorney, I can help. I can also do your Estate Planning or Medicare Planning.
Of course, I’m a lawyer and I run a business, so I charge for my travel time, but I always make sure my clients are taken care of. I always try to be reasonable and fair.
Reasonable Cost
John solves problems in a manner as sophisticated as the big firms, at the cost the rest of us can afford.
